AI Summary

Luis Castillo earned his first win of the season after pitching 5 2/3 innings and allowing three runs against the Astros.

With his velocity up about one mph from his season average, Castillo limited the damage to a Yordan Alvarez solo homer through five, but he gave up a two-run double to Braden Shewmake before exiting in the sixth. Castillo moved to 1-4 with a 6.34 ERA in nine starts. He's supposed to piggyback with Bryce Miller next time through, but we don't yet know what form that will take. That outing against the White Sox is scheduled for Tuesday.
